Know before you buy
No, this piece is not microwave or oven safe. Due to the delicate hand-painted details and the 24k gold accents, it should only be used for serving and display purposes.
To preserve the hand-painted Fishscale pattern and gold trim, this plate is not dishwasher safe. We recommend hand-washing it gently with mild soap and a soft cloth, then drying it immediately to maintain the finish.
The plate measures 9.5 inches square. While the attached handles add to the overall footprint, the square design provides a generous, flat surface ideal for standard-sized cakes, pastries, or hors d'oeuvres.
The handles are securely attached and designed for easy transport. However, because this is fine, hand-crafted porcelain, we recommend supporting the base of the plate with your other hand when moving it to ensure stability.
The 24k gold accents are applied with traditional craftsmanship to ensure longevity. As long as you avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh dishwashing detergents, the gold will retain its luster for years to come.
